RT @Joelsherman1: Buck Showalter is doing his Zoom managerial interviews with the #Mets today. The plan is to take what is currently six publicly known candidates who will all do the Zoom and whittle it down to 2-3 for face-to-face next week and potentially a decision.
Would love to see some of the metrics on these sliders from Alex Valverde, picked today by the #Mets in the MiLB Rule 5 Draft, which induced some silly swings.
He had above-avg whiff #'s while being younger than lg. average.
Interesting stuff coming out of a unique arm slot.

RT @JonHeyman: Mets have a short but very solid list but with a more veteran team it feels like it may be Buck’s job to lose. Nothing decided yet, and there will be a 2nd round of interviews. https://t.co/ORKGk6prFv
If you want Buck Showalter to be the next Mets manager, awesome. If you don’t want Buck Showalter to be the next Mets manager, also awesome. You’re not a sheep for wanting him to be, and you’re not an idiot for not wanting him to be.
Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
https://t.co/PdfV3uEOeR Included in the column is what departments are involved in the multi-Zoom first round of #Mets managerial interviews and my sense of what is key for Showalter to get the job.
Carlos Ocampo's ERA was 5.85 in 2021.
However, his FIP & xFIP paint a rosier picture (4.25 & 3.58).
Here are his BABIPs by season:
2016: .256
2018: .253
2019: .252
2021: .351

Mets select right-hander pitcher Carlos Ocampo with their second (and final) pick of the minor league Rule 5 Draft.
High ERA this season, but 67 strikeouts and only 15 walks in 47 innings in A-Ball in the Cubs organization.

https://t.co/PdfV3uEOeR 30 yrs ago Gene Michael pivoted to Showalter and away from his instinct to hire an experienced manager to address the #Yankees dysfunction. Now 1 of Michael's proteges must decide if Showalter's experience is the best fit to address the #Mets dysfunction
I read the article and am assuming it's the tweeter and not the articles author screwing this up.

RT @bobmrik: @metspolice Why does "Mets" look like someone forgot to turn off full screen mode on their HD tv for their SD channels?
